YMMV / Wacky Game Jokez, 4 Kidz!

Go To

  • Crosses the Line Twice: Invoked by you know who:
    Mickey: And yeah, before you say anything, yes, I am likening homosexuality to having Down syndrome.
  • Ensemble Dark Horse: June seems to be pretty popular, given that she appears on several Hot Diggedy Demon T-Shirts and even appears in a crossover episode in the PONY.MOV series.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: Mickey accusing Tom Fulp of being an antisemite was offensively hilarious at the time, but becomes a lot less funny in light of Max Gilardi, the creator of the show and voice of most of the show's characters, coming under fire for mocking Steven Universe by drawing an antisemitic caricature of the title character dubbed "Steven Jewniverse".
  • Heartwarming Moments:
    • Bossman shares a little moment with Mickey when he cracks up at Mickey's Really Bad Kirby joke. This, of course, doesn't last very long once Bossman tells Mickey to get the hell out of his office.
    • Fanmail 2 shows a much more relaxed version of Mickey, which is a stark contrast from his usual crude and stern demeanor in the show proper.
  • Hilarious in Hindsight:
    • When Mickey interviews Egoraptor he asks him why he's gay. He has no reason to believe he's gay, he's just being an asshole. Two years later, Egoraptor would start Game Grumps with JonTron, which spawned many Slash Fics and in-series jokes about being gay for each other.
    • The Confirmed for Brawl" video is now this with Nintendo hosting a poll for character suggestions for Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and adding Ryu as DLC.
  • Nightmare Fuel: At the end of every episode, a screaming zombie cat will pop up after the Video Game Videos' indent. Except for "Mickey's Rebuttal," which has the screaming cat's head on Mickey in the intro, while the ending logo has the cat with Mickey's head yelling "Scraaaa!"
  • Values Dissonance: A show that derives some of its humor from a character screaming ableist and/or homophobic slurs reflects a very specific era of the Internet that wouldn't fly today. May also cross with Refuge in Audacity, seeing as Mickey is so blatantly using such slurs around everyone else in the show, but no one really seems to care most of the time.
    • Justified in some cases, given that the main character is literally named "Mickey the Dick"
  • What Do You Mean, It's Not for Kids?: Despite the title, this is definitely not an animated series suited for children.
